The trend of you not liking good things bodes well for Arthur Brown and his career

Haha, you know my feelings on LB's. They're just overrated. Especially one who as of a couple days ago BBD said COULD be at our 2nd round pick. Or at least he listed him as on guy who might be at our pick.

I think Brown will be a really good LB. If he was at our 2nd round pick I would take him in a heartbeat. I just don't like wasting a 1st round pick on a LB. Not when we have so many other defensive needs.

I agree with your take on linebackers usually, but maybe it's just I'm getting so sick of mediocrity at it for us. Sick of this musical chairs game with stopgap free agents we play every year. I'd just love for a solid guy to man the middle for us for a decade.

And I know BBD's take on Brown falling, but I HIGHLY doubt it. Highly, highly doubt he'll fall to the 2nd, let alone our pick there

Brown falling to the 2nd is wishful thinking for me. I thought he'd be there bc I didn't expect him to run that well, and I figure a guy who is a bit undersized with average speed will be a mid 2nd round pick.

But he ran extremely well at his pro day, and now 2nd round looks like it's not realistic unless we move up to get him.

Now do I feel better players will be on the board at 19? Depends on how you value LB I guess. Would I mind if we took him at 19? No. I think he's gonna be a stud, so why would I be upset if we took a stud in the 1st?

I just love him as a player. His value is debatable, but at the end of the day a stud is a stud. You want studs on your team, that's a good thing.

I think the realistic guy on my radar is Xavier Rhodes. Honestly we can go in a million directions and I'll be fine with practically all of them.

I'm okay with mediocrity at LB. We've won two Super Bowls with bad/below average LBs. The money we have saved on not drafting and overrated position has helped us immensely in other, more important areas.

Here is the general kind of thing I wouldn't be surprised to see on draft day

19: G Chance Warmack, Alabama

49: LB Manti Teo, Notre Dame

81: CB Logan Ryan, Rutgers

116: S TJ McDonald, USC

152: LB Gerald Hodges, Penn St

187: WR Denard Robinson, Michigan

225: RB Knile Davis, Arkansas

253: OT Reid Fragel, Ohio St

Wishful thinking bro. Warmack is going top 10 and Teo will go off the board shortly after we pick 1st round (plus, to play MLB you need to be smart and athletic, and Teo is neither). Logan Ryan is good but is 5'11 and i'm worried he is too small.

First round, i truly think we should trade down and get an extra 3rd round pick or something. Teams behind us all want WRs and we can trade back 5 picks and secure a much needed extra pick. There is no one at 19 that stands out truthfully. If Warmack is there, sure, great- grab him and don't look back. I'm not high on Olgetree, Fluker @ 19 seems like a bad value pick and Desmond Trufant would be the only guy I would consider and I think we can get him even if we trade down.

Keep being skeptical! Everything you're skeptical about always turns out great. Like the Knicks.

I think we will likely go with Warmack, Cooper or Fluker most likely.
Brown is a stud but is he worth the 19? It would be a big call by Reese in my opinion, but it would be a big call by Reese.

I think this is the major point why it is hard to see a first round LB
